## Enhancing the Performance and Reliability of Process Water Treatment Systems

Water plays an integral role in virtually every industrial process – from thermal power generation, to chemical processing, to electronics and semiconductor manufacturing, and more. In the U.S. [refining](/who-we-serve/downstream-oil-gas "Downstream Oil & Gas") sector alone, it’s estimated that almost 2 billion gallons of process water are used every day. Common applications include heating, cooling, washing, rinsing, sanitizing, etc.

In many industrial facilities, the quality and availability of process water directly impacts plant output. Onsite water treatment operations, if not managed appropriately, can lead to cost overruns, non-compliance and, in severe cases, unplanned downtime.

Veolia has extensive technical experience operating and maintaining process water treatment systems for industrial organizations in a range of sectors;

- [oil and gas](/who-we-serve/downstream-oil-gas "Downstream Oil & Gas")
- [power](/who-we-serve/power-generation-industry "Power Generation Industry")
- [food and beverage](/who-we-serve/food-beverage "Food & Beverage")
- [manufacturing](/who-we-serve/general-manufacturing "General Manufacturing")
- [chemical](/who-we-serve/chemicals "Chemicals")
- [pharmaceutical](/who-we-serve/pharmaceutical-and-biotech "Pharmaceutical and Biotech")

We partner with operators to ensure that quality specifications are met and that treatment systems and equipment are operating as efficiently as possible.

Our engineers and water specialists possess in-depth knowledge and expertise that can help you meet treatment system performance requirements and sustainability goals by:

- Minimizing unplanned downtime of industrial water treatment systems, which can lead to downtime of production processes
- Implementing prescriptive maintenance measures to avoid unanticipated overhauls or capital expenses
- Implementing treatment strategies that reduce total water consumption and maximize opportunities for beneficial reuse/recycling
- Leveraging [digitally-enabled solutions](/about/innovation/introducing-hubgrade-smart-digital-solutions "Introducing Hubgrade Smart Digital Solutions") (i.e., remote services, data analytics, etc.) to drive down operational costs and optimize the performance of treatment systems
